ジョニーの英語交じりの詩は画期的だった。
ジョニー大倉が死んだときに
ジョニーのセンスが光ってた。
でも、キャロルが解散して
英語日本語かぶりまくりの感じの 結構な英語かぶれで、でもメロディーは永ちゃんのもののほうが 断然よかったけど。当時にとってはメロディアスでポップって感じで。今の音楽とは長さも歌詞の意味合いも全然違いますが、今は、なんか小説のような歌詞 本当、4分間ぐらいの小説を書く感じで メロディーも凝ってる。Aメロ Bメロ Cメロどころではなく Fメロぐらいまでありそうな、
ジョニーは少し太りすぎた？？
ジョニー大倉は、その後俳優とかをやりながら 歌も歌ったりと そんな感じで その後、
時代ですね。
なんかこのへんの集まりは ジョニーも早くから自分が在日だということをカミングアウトしてましたが
最後はさすがに素直な心で・・・。
死に間際には
もっともっといい印税生活を
もっと、
Johnny Okura’s poetry mixed English and Japanese for the first time in Japan. It’s Carroll.
Johnny’s English-tinged poetry was groundbreaking.
When Johnny Okura died, Mr. Eikichi Yazawa said something like, “Johnny wrote poetry mixed with English for the first time. It’s true that he reminds me a lot of things like “I’M JUST A LEADY SEVENTEEN…”. Johnny was, after all, addicted to English, and in that sense he was well versed in musical sense and his sense of looks, and American music of that time, especially rock and roll, such as Chuck Berry and the Beatles. The sense around it appears in a band called “Carol”. Above all, I like the poem mixed with English. Before that, there was certainly a time when rockabilly was popular, and I’m sure there was a mixture of English, but at that time, I think it was more like him singing in English, but in terms of vocabulary. He is like that when English comes out. I feel like “Johnny is the first one to express lyrics in English!!”.
Johnny’s sense was shining.
But when Carole broke up and Johnny went solo, I think it sounded pretty good. I think it was like rock’n’roll or rockabilly. Her looks were good, she was skinny and had a rather wild face, and she had a little cuteness, and the clothes she tried to wear were colorful and had a little taste, and I felt that her Johnny’s sense came to the fore. do. Something like “Lucille… it’s mine…”
It’s quite an English addiction with the feeling of being overwhelmed with English and Japanese, but Ei-chan’s melody was by far the better one. At the time, it was melodious and pop. The length and meaning of the lyrics are completely different from today’s music, but now, the lyrics are like novels, and it feels like he’s writing a 4-minute novel. Rather than A melody B melody C melody, he seems to have even F melody, it is very elaborate. It doesn’t sound simple and easy to listen to. The musical level may have risen, but it’s not as easy to listen to as it was in the old days, so I think some people might prefer the old sounds because they’re simpler and clearer.
Was Johnny a little overweight?
After that, Johnny Okura started singing as well as acting, etc. After that, he became very fat, and he felt like he had another look and sales, and he stopped singing. As long as I feel lonely that I no longer write poetry. Even when it appeared on TV, it felt like a pestle from the old days, with a slightly thicker Presley feel, but this is the best sense. Globally, like the Beatles and the Stones, he can maintain his good looks even after reaching the age of 70, and it’s become a principle that rock stars look good until they die. Mick Jagger, Paul, David Boy and Bryan Ferry are all cool no matter how old they are, but that’s the rule these days. Makoto Ayukawa’s theory is that rock’n’rollers have to be thin! Like. It’s basic that he can wear a leather jacket cool even when he’s old, and Johnny was disappointing, but I think he was a very good creator.
It’s time.
At this kind of gathering, Johnny also came out from early on that he was a resident of Japan, but Kouichi Iwaki, who is a resident of Cools, and Ei-chan were also rumored to be the same, and it was the flow of the entertainment world that way. Or should I say the trend, I feel like they were the people of Huink. Like Mick Jagger, I wanted him to be a little more polished.
Finally, be honest with yourself…
On the verge of death, the feud with Eikichi seemed to have softened a little, and the story around this point is that Eikichi Yazawa is doing his best, so Carol’s existence will last forever, and as long as Eikichi Yazawa is selling well, Carol won’t fade away. The older he gets, the more selfish and stubborn he becomes, so he doesn’t want to admit it. is. In the past, people used to feel like they were going bang bang with drugs and drugs as they wanted, but I think from this point onwards they would sometimes get so excited, but in the end, with an honest heart. There is something to be said for writing good poetry.
Have a better royalties life
If I had written more poems in Carol, I think my royalty life would have been more fulfilling. Looking at this Johnny Okura-san, I’ve come to think that I should have put a little more effort into my life to leave intellectual property behind. I learned a lot, but… Things I made 40 years ago still make money It feels like she got royalties, so she’s a great system. If you make it, it will sell.It doesn’t feel like it will become famous, but it’s worth trying. Johnny Okura must have regretted it a little too…
